So soft to cuddle and so easy to make, this
shaggy cushion is perfect for a Valentine's day
gift for someone you love. All you need to make
the shaggy cushion is some colourful wool in two
contrasting colours, a cushion cover, hairbrush
and a glue gun.

HERE'S HOW:

1. Wrap the first colour of your choice of
wool around you hand several times.

2. Pull off your hand, tie a knot in the
centre and then cut open the ends.

3. You will use a hairbrush to create the
shaggy effect.

4. Brush the wool until it starts
to go soft and shaggy.

5. Place a bead of hot glue in the centre of
the cushion cover.

6. Stick down the first bundle of shaggy
wool.

7. Repeat the process with the first colour
to make a heart shape and use a second colour to
fill around the edges of the cushion cover.

8. Use a straightening iron to tidy up and
flatten the shaggy wool and make it smooth. Now
you can pop in a cushion inner and give your
loved one his or her very own snuggle cushion.
